HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

According to the very enthusiastic comments on the most recent photos, this rose repeat blooms. The description here says this is a once-blooming rose. I'm not sure what to believe! I have sent an email to the photographer to get this clarified.	REPLY

There are now a few more references for the climber. It is still not quite clear and the remontancy seems to vary. I hope it repeats for I suspect a foundling is 'Mme. Edouard Herriot Climbing'. Mine is a year old, on its own roots, and is three feet high. Attached is a picture of the original mother plant which was planted pre 1939 to 1945.	REPLY

According to Vintage Gardens website, Climbing Mme. Edouard Herriot reblooms very well. I am inclined to think that perhaps she does repeat well after all. I still hope to hear from the folks in Slovenia who submitted the lovely photos and glowing descriptions of CMEH. Good luck with your plant -- hope it prospers and repeat flowers well for you!	REPLY

Hi, we folks from Slovenia got a little lost along the way, but our rose hasn't and she definitely is remontant: it usually has two or three quite nice flushes throughout the season, apart from the extremely abundant one in may. The first flush has very large (I'd say 6 inches in diameter or a little more) and fuller blooms, while later ones are a bit smaller and less full. We inspired some other rose lovers from Slovenia to plant this rose and hopefully they'll have their own input to the debate soon.
